Work with me
Hire me for your team, or bring me in for a project.
Either way, I start by finding the real problem. Then I get the right people behind it, and build something that keeps working long after I've moved on.
For hiring teams
Head of Design · Design Lead
Whatever you call it, the job is the same: set the direction, grow the team, make the work last. Ideally where design has a seat at the strategy table, or needs someone to earn it.
What I bring
- Nine years in design, eight leading it in three online businesses
- New products built from zero, and redesigns that move the numbers, like +30% conversion on luxury watches
- Systems, research and ways of working that outlast me
- Trust from luxury maisons, product heads and engineers alike
- Designers who grow under me, and 144 mentoring sessions outside work
Where I do my best work
- Problems with no benchmark to copy
- Categories where emotion drives the decision: luxury, beauty, lifestyle, AI-assisted commerce
- Leadership that wants design to shape the strategy, not just decorate it
- Remote, or relocation for the right team
For founders & leaders
Consulting, for businesses that want to grow without losing their soul.
I take on a few projects at a time, so each one gets my full attention.
Experience audit
A fresh, senior look at your product through your customers' eyes. You get a clear list of where trust, clarity and feeling are leaking, and what to fix first.
2–3 weeksResearch-led strategy sprint
Depth interviews, synthesis with your team in the room, and a rewritten brief: the one underneath the one you started with.
4–6 weeksDesign org & system setup
Design systems, research practice and rituals that let a small team work like a larger one, and keep quality steady as you scale.
OngoingFractional design leadership
Hands-on direction for teams that need a Head of Design's judgement before they need a full-time hire.
